By Ria Deshmukh and Arianna Conte | During the same week as the president’s address to Congress, RepresentWomen held our annual Democracy Solutions Summit. This solutions-oriented event allowed us to imagine what our democracy could look like with better policies and better representation. As the U.S. faces threats towards democracy, policy changes and civic participation are crucial. A healthy democracy is one where people of all backgrounds and perspectives can have a seat at the table.

As we reckon with an administration hostile to equal rights, feminists will continue to fight. To help keep hope, we must remember and celebrate recent wins.
